The second question can be accessed on the front page of the website. If you missed the first question you can still access it at http://veryspatial.com/about/anniversary-contest-jan09/. The contest is open to anyone however only US residents are eligible for the Grand Prize. Correctly answering each week’s question will give you an entry in the contest (1 per question) and following VerySpatial on Twitter before Feb 11 will give you an additional three (3) entries. Good Luck and be sure to come back next Tuesday for the next contest question.

The Grand Prize will be a Flip Mino video camera for you to capture your geographic adventures.

There have been several companies moving to the webinar route over the last year. These are great ways for users to get to know the nooks and crannies of products, geospatial or not, and it allows for some level of interaction with the person leading the webinar. The downside is that they aren’t always convenient to fit in your schedule, no matter how many times a given webinar is offered. Perhaps the most useful thing about a webinar is that it can be tossed online afterward for any and all who missed the original or just missed a point. ERDAS has gotten around to archiving their webinars for the general public. What is more, they seem to be rolling them out quickly so you don’t have to wait a month or more if you missed the live webinar. And…AND…you can take it with you when you download the webinar and run it on your laptop though you will need the WebEx ARF player to view the file, so no viewing on your personal media player of choice.
